An injectable compounded medication is a sterile drug to be administered into the body using a needle and syringe or an I.V. administration set and needle device. There are several routes of administration including:

• Intravenous (I.V.)
• Intramuscular (I.M.)
• Subcutaneous (S.C. or S.Q.)

Injectables must be sterile, have limited endotoxins and must meet labeled potency. Using injectable medication that does not meet these specifications may lead to infections and other more severe complications.

To prevent this risk, a highly-trained pharmacy staff, specially designed facility with proper equipment, quality assurance program, and policies and procedures are essential.
